Genetic evidence for past hybridisation between domestic pigs and English wild boars

2012-10-01

Abstract excerpt

While governments normally take action to eradicate or control feral populations of introduced species, management becomes problematic in the rare event of an inadvertent reintroduction of a locally extinct species to its former range. Free-living wild boars became extinct in Britain around 700Â years ago, but animals have recently escaped from farms and recolonised parts of England. There has been much debate abo...
